You got me there...I know if you plan on using lst or topping you need to gve them a bit of room on the sides per plant...if you reduce the height you will increase the width...

How many grow cycles can you do with a 1000w bulb before it needs to be replaced?

Thank you so much for the help Hamster...much appreciated!

Besides strain, it depends on how long you veg them. I have a space that is 3 x 6.5 and generally run 6-8 plants.

Do those 1000bulbs ballasts have cases or are they bare ballasts?

Good smoking

5gal buckets top out at no more than 12 inches wide.
